and decided to call in DR. Gray from the
insane ward in the same building DR..

death. He was forced to take emetice,
and was kept constantly walking for an
hour, until all danger had passed. The
attempted suicide of Eagel is what led to
the search of the cells. Besides the dis
covery of the bombs, there was found an
empty bottle in Epgel's cell from which
he had taken laudanum. Three or four
drops OF laudsnum still remained in the
bottle, and E3gel was confronted with
the evidence of his intended suicide. He
continued to deny it, but at last eullenly
admitted the truth of the accusation. He
had preferred death by his own hands, he
said, to any carrying out of the sentence
under the law. Engel stuobornly refused
to disclose how he obtained the poison.
The bottle affords no clew, and like
Ltngg's dynamite, the source of the poison
is g mystery.
NOT so MANY sIGNERs.
CHICAGO, ILL, Nov. 7.-Sheriff Matson
said this morning there was no doubt as
to the nature OF the stuff found in Lingg's
bono, that psrt Of the filling had been ia
ken out of couple of pipes and explod
ed, and that it had been found to be the
strongest kind Of dynamite. The amnes-
ty people have three tables on the streets
sgain this morning, but there seems to be
less disposition on the part of the crowd
TO sign the petition than formerly, and
but few names are being secured.
GOVERNOR OGLESBY NOT ALARMED.
SPRINGFIELD, ILL, Nov. 7.-Goyernor
Oglesby regarding the threatening epistles
which he has received from anarchist
sympsthisers said: SIT is quite tue

have never alarmed me. Most Of them
have been received within the past week
and they have usually consisted OF IN

communications have been generally cor
signed to the flames. I do rot think
have received mere than h8lf dozen Of
these communications altogether"

HOW THE ANARCHISTS ARE WATCHED
CHICAGO, ILL NV. Louis Lingg is
defsut and sullen this morning, H pu.
on his oldest clothes, pair of grey
corduroy pauts aud DlsCk jacket, put
his feet upon the little iron cot sad began
to read the paper. His cell is Oh the
lower f3or and looks cut upon the ex-
aiming cage. TIE reporters may OBJ
serve him st 8 distance of eight feet. He
was restless and every few minutes he
would jerk his head around sud stare
through the grated door With
wild look. Presently he
got up sud presented himself
il front of the cell door snd looked out
on the contracted field ct his vision. He
say nothing but repGrters and a suspi-
cious muscular bailiff. He was nervous.
he would lean sgainst the wall, sit on his
cot, get up, put his elbows on the bars OF
his cell and rest his face on his hands.
His favori:e attitude was to stand erect,
fold his arms over his bread chest and
gaze out br!stling and ferocious. None
Of them were LET out Of their
cells this morning, and Jailor Folae
says they will not be to-day. Mrs.
Schwab, Mrg. Engel and Mrs. Parsons
came to see their husbands, but the best
they could do was to call out good moIr-
ing and send up some papers. No pact
ages of any sort were allowed TO go IL.
Miss Van Zardt Was there. "Good

clients at their cell doors.

GOVERNOR oGLEsBY'e MAIL.
SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Nov. Governor
Oglesby's mail this morning was COM
posed of little more than 100 letters,
nesrly all of which related to the anarch-
ists' case. This is an increase over any
previous DAY, and the proportion of re-
quests for clemency is also said to be
grester than yesterday. Chicago, as
usu.l, furnishes most of the ms.l on this
suajsct, and many letters are said to
have been marked personal or
confidential. This is needless pre-
eau lou oa the part of the writers
as no one but the Govern or gees
his anarchist mail. It is facs that most
OF the communications are devoid of ans
firm, isbel or printing that will indics>,.
